"I would like to square up a couple of things"- Liam Payne states before meeting Niall Horan
Ahead of attending Horan's concert, Liam Payne shared a series of Snapchat videos informing his followers he was on his way to Argentina with his girlfriend, Kate. He stated:
"We're going to Argentina. One, because we have to, and two, because we want to, and three, because Niall Horan's playing down there and I think we might just go and say 'Hello'."
Both Payne and Horan, along with Harry Styles, Zayn Malik, and Louis Tomlinson, were part of the British boy band One Direction. They were one of the best-selling boy groups of all time. A year after Malik's exit in 2015, the band went on an indefinite hiatus. The members have since focused on their solo careers.
Payne continued:
"It’s been a while since me and Niall have spoken. We’ve got a lot to talk about. And I would like to square up a couple of things with the boy. No bad vibes or anything like that. But just... umm... we need to talk."
Liam Payne is not the only 1D member to attend the On The Loose hitmaker's concert. In August, fans spotted Harry Styles enjoying his former bandmate's gig Co-op Live in Manchester, England.
Videos from the show circulating online show the Watermelon Sugar singer dancing as Horan performs a cover of One Direction's 2014 track Stockholm Syndrome from their album Four.
Niall Horan is currently in the Latin America leg of his current tour, The Show: Live on Tour. It kicked off in February and will conclude on October 9 in Colombia. His album, The Show, earned him a No. 2 position on Billboard 200.
